Going to be plenty of tries in this match

Suspect there might be quite a few cards too.

Penalty Try FFS

YC

Consistent

All you can ask for

Wales 14 - 3 Fiji

That Radradra tackle might be looked at too...

[MiketheSnow]

Bye Bye

YC

[Mr Fish]

That'll be a red card.

Winnett was low

Could go either way

[MiketheSnow]

Fantastic try from Muntz

Wales 14 - 10 Fiji

[Mr Fish]

Brilliant individual effort. He's really come of age this year. Fiji would have loved to have had either him or IAR at the World Cup last year.

Fiji down to 14 for another 10

After it was judged to be foul play it was basically always going to be red.

Radradra's should have been YC. Mitigation: Oppo player at almost hip height

[MiketheSnow]

Catch and drive has been excellent

Ball transfer / decision making poor

[MiketheSnow]

Initial game plan and execution was very good

Now Wales trying too hard

[MiketheSnow]

Fair play to Fiji

[MiketheSnow]

I have no problem with this ref’s decisions

And he admits when he’s wrong

Wish he’d clean up the diving in at the ruck

Don't understand why Gats persists with Griffin at tighthead, I get that he has potential but hasn't played.
Henry Thomas is performing well this season, just a head scratching decision for me.

A player being low is not mitigation once foul play has already been determined (but it can result in no foul play being determined by the ref). A sudden drop in height can be - but that wasn't the case here.

Wales 14 - 10 Fiji
Halftime

Some great moments from both sides

But the cards have made it stop start

Is that so? Whatever the process, I think a YC would have been the correct call here.
